Townsend and the Cafes.
he Bee has the following:

The Bee has the following:
f. W. Townsend writes for the
Examiner that he almost sunstruck
a Chicago citizen by asking him
where the best cafes of that mod
ern Sodom were, but that the poor
fellow recovered and answered
when the word cafes" was changed
to restaurants" We see nothing
strange about that. The only pc
culiar thing is to hear Ned Town
send prate so learnedly about cafes.
Before he was secretary to that
prince of epicures, George Hearst,
restaurant" or a hash house"
was high enough for his part in
co1scerSozione, and he couldn't have
told a cafe if he saw it coming up
the street with an overcoat on"
Ned should read the above over
carefully and like a sensible man
stick to the good old fashioned
English that be was taught in Ne
vada when he worked for ID. E. Nc
Carthy.

Great Excitement Caused by EiIs
story.

I
CoLUsA, May 25:-The SANDER
Gus story tclegraphed from Gro
vile to the Examiner. rejecting
upon the reputation of Mrs. Billion
and purporting to be Hong Dis
side of the story. has excited the
greatest indignation among people
here.
The story has no foundation
Whatever. Mrs. Billion was 80
years old and had lived in this
county the greater portion of her
life. Her many friends here are
justly indignant that a newspaper
like the Examiner should even in
innate n belief Ia the story by its
publication. The testimony at the
Coroner's inquest shows that Wea-
yer was shot first and fell to the
floor apparently dead, that the
murderer ran past Weaver, and
standing between him and Mrs.
Billion, fired aud killed her, and
then shot twice at Annie Billion.
Failing to accomplish this he at
tempted to kill her with an axe.
This is evidence sworn to by eye
witnesses of the terrible affair, and
cannot be controverted.
1t is the belief of the Coroner's
Jury and all who attended the in
quest that Hong Dis only object
was to murder the whole family ex-
cept Maude. to ouorage her and
then kill her, then burn the house
to hide the crime. All the stories
he can tell; or that can be invented
by the sensational Examiner CORE
spondent, will not make the people
of this country believe him to be
anything but the incarnate fiend he
is. If it is learned here that Hong
Di told this story, his chances for a
fair trial will be very slim.

what the Unions Might Do


Last week two printers 10 the
State Printing Office left the city
without attending to their board
bills. This has often happened be-
fore in this city. In most cases the
printers belonged to the Typograph-
ical Union. 1t might be an excel
lent idea for the Unions to intro
duce a rule cancelling the travelling
card of any craftsman who skipped
his board bill. In the long run it
would be good thing for the typos,
and before long a travelling printer
would only have to exhibit his card
to get credit if he needed it.

the falling of some OF the hams into

department was very prompt and had
the flames under control before they
had reached the outer air. The esti-
mated damage is but about 5000,

THE DEMOCRATIC POLICY j..
EFrom the N. Y. Stsr.l

from the N. Y. Star.
We do not think tha. our rer"t
friends are in doubt any lon,
the policy of the democrat1
That policy Is now disclosed il.
suit Of a years administr alton, and H.,
the recommendations which are made
to congress in the presidents message
and in the departmental reports which
accompany it. The main features of
the democratic poicy are these:
First-An economical administrator
of the government.
Second A reduction of taxes. There
is no purpose in economy unless the
taxes are reduced. If high taxes are
to be maintained, the expenditures
should be continued. For, great as the
evils Of extravaganza in the public bus
iness, they are not SO great as the
evils of accommodating and holding in
the treasury vast sums for which the
government has no use If tue money
is spent it gets back into the hands of
the people; if it is boarded, 1t lakes
out of circulation the very life blood
of industry and commerce.
Third-A reduction of taxes b, re-
moving them from the necessaries Of
lie anu ITOm tne ulatcTlaiS uePu Oy
our artisans and manufacturers
Fourth-A rehabilitation OF the navy
and proper provision fer the defense
of the cities aud harbors
Fifth-A reform OF the civil service,
80 that the ordinary administration OF
the several departments of the govern
ment may be made independent of the
mutations aud fluctuations of politics,
and SO that our political life may be de-
tended against the corrupting aud
debasing effects of the spoils system.
Sixth-A repossession by the gov
ernment of those public lands which
have been seized without warrant OF
law.
Seventh-An adjustment of the inan-
ces of the country upon the foundation
of bimetallic currency, but without
attempting TO give fictitious and ab-
normal value TO either gold or silver.
Eighth-A recognition of the rights
of labor in the old-fsshioned defhocrat-
ic way, by giving to it seeu5<xS1
freedom and protection ~ g

tyranny of great corpOratie

TARIFF REFORM IEh,.
From the St. Louis Republican, I

lriO" tuc 81. LOule hepuDllcAD.I
1t is pretty certain that the remand.
er of the 3.per cent. bonds pa, able al
the pleasure of the government, $64,-
1877 900 in amount, will be paid before
the end of next year. The very last
of them will, probably, have been call
ed in and paid by the 1st OF October,
If not sooner, and there will be no
more bonds which the secretary OF the
treasury can take up at his discretion.
The bonded debt of the government ill
then consist OF bonds having q number
of years to run, viz S737,776 900 e.
per-cents; $3.50, ,O00, 900 44-per- cents;
s64 ,623 900 6-per- cents; and the navy
pension fund, Sl4 100000; toiai, ST.
066, ,399 900. These bonds cannot be
paid without buying them in the open
market and paying premium of Is 10
% per cent. for them, which would be
q bad policy. But the surplus OF re-
celpts over expenditures will continue
to accumulate in the treasury al the
rate Of $lOO,U0O.OU0 or more year
and the question of what is to be done
will become pressing one. The gov
eminent cannot continue from year TO
year taking from the people hundred
million dollars it has no use for and eau.
not judiciously spend land locking it up
to rust III the treasury vaults. The people
need il and eau prOfitably Use it, if The
government cannOt-and this suggests
the proper way out of the difficulty;
leaving the money in the pockets of the
people by reducing taxes by $IO0,O00,-
900.
The reduction can be made either By
abolishing the internal revenue system
which now yields $4,000, 900 year.
or by removing the duty on many ar
ticles of import and reducing it on
others. The internal revenue system
is simply system of taxes on three
articles of luxury, spirits. beer and to-
bacco. The partisans of high tariff
propose that these taxes be repealed
and the tariff lett alone. But it is
hardly conceivable that the people will
consent to this, which is nothing less
than that spirits. beer and tobacco shall
be free and cheap. lille the necessarias
| of life, the materials of manufacture
| and the implements OF industry are
| taxed. Such measure is too absurd
| to be even ell crtalned. The only al
tentative, then, is reduction, and Il
very large reduction in the tariff rates.
These rates were adjusted on a war
scale, and it Is high time they were
brought down.

ANOTHER CONFESSION.


The house has a. / with cninni"m
liable promptness in passing the Sr,,air
bill regulating the manner al ,ir
electoral count. AS the amradine...-
made do not touch the essential p,iuci
plies of the bill it is thought .iia' .h"
senate will concur in them al uha,
this long. della, ed measure ..i afe
will govern the count for IN, mex
election.
The most noticeable thing in "..
ZION with the bill is the faci III .si
been the law in 1876 >amu ! -
lens election to The presid.mc, "a
have been certified to by congress.
That republican senate should nov
formulate the right principle ani ias,
method in law is a tardy but sigmiti
cant confession that its party. W.,
wrong in that memorable dispute
Under the bill as now approved by
both houses provision is made for the
firal settlement OF electoral disputes by
the several states, so far as is possible.
This Is vice recognition Of the ihea-
pendence of the states and Of their
right and duty to manage their local
affairs in their own way.
But If any state shall be unable to
decide dispute in regard to its
electors, that return only is to be ac-
cepted aud counted by congress which
both honses, acting separately, concur
in agreeing to be the legal one.
Had this been the law in 1876 the
democratic house would have refused
to count the disputed votes of Florida
and Louisiana. The governor, the
Judiciary and the legislature of Florida
agreed in holding the Tilden electors
to be chosen. But under the certifi-
cate OF corrupt and rascally return-
ing board. the republican electors OBJ
tanned standing in congress, and the
leaders of that party in the senate
maintained that the concurrent action
of both houses, acting separately, was
necessary to reject return, and that
i'm the absence OF such action the vice.
president had a right to accept and
count the fraudulent return. Out Ol
this difference grew the electoral COM
mission, which reversed the result
of the election.
The present bill embO,lles the cor
rect principle of conclusive state de-
termination of electoral disputes, il
had before the meeting of the colleges
and reduces to the minimum the dan
ger of partisan decisions Oh unsettled
disputes in congress.
